We are having a problem in the Autodesk License. Our software and license are installed on a virtual machine server; upon restarting the server, the HOSTID ( Mac Address ) of the VM has changed. The license file cannot be found by the clients anymore.
Kindly advise if there is a special license for VM servers since the HOST ID (Mac Address) may change every time we restart the server.
Attaced new Host ID

If you find something that works, let us know.
RK is right. The NLM is dependent on the MAC address. Using a VM Server has this side-effect. My recommendation has been to go into the settings of the virtual machine and actually hard-code the MAC address so that it does not change at random. This will ensure that your license file does not become unusable. This is what I do.
